i just patched in the last hour and started the game, to make sure im set for tonight (for most of yall tomorrow, but as you can see on the left, im from europe)..
so, i started it, and when the menu popped up, it was like someone told my gfxcard "turn into a turbine". i mean, why the hell increased it the fanspeed to 100%, when nothing happens on screen? i dont have a big problem with it, beeing in performancemode, but the card gets so damn loud, its not even funny.. im thinking about to switch it out an putting my old passive cooled card in (which would be a downgrade from a 8800GT1gb to a 8600GT512), cause its so annoying.

i saw the same thing happen with the CO-demo, but im wondering why this happens?
